What color is Sherwin Williams Momentum?
Sherwin Williams Momentum SW 9530 is a deep, muted brown with an olive-khaki cast that keeps it grounded rather than red or chocolatey. Its low-light depth makes it read almost like a softened dark earth tone, while brighter natural light brings out its dusty golden-brown undertone. Momentum is particularly effective on cabinetry, a study wall, or a dining room where a darker color can add visual weight without looking stark. Pair it with warm off-whites, natural oak, tan leather, terracotta textiles, and aged brass for a layered, organic palette. On an exterior, this shade can give trim, shutters, or a front door a substantial, earthy presence against creamy stone or warm beige siding.

LRV of Momentum
Momentum has an LRV of 7.96% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 7.96%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
